FOUNDCARE HEALTH CENTER ANNOUNCES NEW NURSE PRACTITIONER
(West Palm Beach, Fla.) FoundCare Health Center at 2330 South Congress Avenue in West Palm Beach recently announced Elsie Remy as Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner, according to Bill Quinn, Center Manager.
FoundCare Health Center offers primary care and preventive services including medical diagnosis and treatment. Dental services and pharmacy services will be added in the future. Designed to provide affordable access to quality primary health, dental and preventive care to children and families in Palm Beach County, FoundCare Health Center serves all patients regardless of their ability to pay — including the uninsured. Eligibility specialists meet with each patient prior to their first appointment to establish a portion of responsibility for the bill, based on household income and using the federal poverty level.
As the Center’s Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner, Remy will be responsible for conducting complete physicals, providing treatment and counseling patients. She will educate patients and families about preventive care and identify, evaluate, and address disease prevention and health promotion issues while administering quality patient care.
“Elsie is a great addition to our staff,” said Quinn. “With more than 19 years of medical experience, she is terrific with our patients. They love her and many call her ‘their angel.’ Her commitment to their needs is admirable.”
